Here's a synopsis of the stories about the Zodiac Killer. No one has definitely been identified. Several suspects, circumstancial evidence, inconclusive elements all play into this mystery...

Fingerprint comparisons, palm print comparisons, handwriting comparisons, and DNA comparisons appear to exonerate Allen, and more than three decades of investigation by police, the media and amateur sleuths failed to produce any credible evidence to link the so-called "prime suspect" to the Zodiac crimes.
Allen had professed his innocence and stated, “I’m not the damn Zodiac.” Had he lived to stand trial, it is quite possible that a jury would have believed him."

This story has already been debunked. Its not true, nor has it ever been. Arthur Allen WAS a good, solid suspect. However, after a lot of investigation, it has been PROVEN Allen is not the killer.

Before people start throwing around BS. They should really take some time and look into the facts. Not speculation.
